In composing “still life”, I\u00a0 recalled   a fascinating experience during a recent stay on the Frioul archipelago, near   Marseilles.\u00a0 While   walking and recording sounds for various projects, I noticed a snail on the   steps leading to my studio. Everyday I walked up and down those steps; I was   constantly excited at the prospect of observing the progress this snail would   manage.\u00a0\u00a0 It was very cold   and it looked to me as if the snail wasn\u2019t moving at all.\u00a0   My enjoyment of the snail was the surreal concept that I could not   observe its immediate progress but was aware of it by gauging how much   progress it had made each day.<\/p>\n
This   project being in line with the minimal aesthetic I am interested in of   late, i have decided\u00a0 to approach   the sound of imperceptible change as audio “still life” .<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
